We Want YOU to Help Us Celebrate Bethany’s 40th Anniversary!

As part of our 40th anniversary celebration, we’re creating a special video featuring the voices and stories of our church family—and we’d love to include as many people as possible, adults, teens, and kids alike!

If you’d like to participate, we invite you to record a short video (15–30 seconds). Don’t want to make a video? You may respond in writing! The deadline for your submission is November 12th.

Here are a few questions and sentence starters to help you get started:

  • What has Bethany meant to you? What do you hope for Bethany’s future?
  • Where do you see God’s love at work in or through our church family?
  • When have you recently been reminded of God’s love for you?
  • How is God using you right now?

 

Looking for a kid-friendly prompt? These are great for adults, too!

  • I feel God smiling when…
  • I know God is with me when…

 

There’s no need to have the perfect words—just share from the heart!

We hope to include as many voices as possible, though we may not be able to use every submission. Videos and texts may also be edited as needed. Thank you for helping us celebrate 40 years of God’s faithfulness at Bethany. We can’t wait to hear your stories and celebrate together!

The deadline for your submission is November 12th

Great! We’ve received your information.

Hello Bethany Family, 
 
We pray that you are all well this evening. As you know, there is a weather advisory for our area until 10am in effect regarding the incoming snow, potential slippery roads as a result of the weather conditions, and low temperatures. Our understanding is that the snow will conclude by 7am, however, due to the short amount of time that will be available to assess and make a judgement call in the morning that would keep team members, volunteers, and members of the congregation out of harm’s way, after the discussion with the Elders we have decided not to have service in the morning. This decision did not come lightly, but out of an abundance of caution and care for our members, some of whom arrive at the church very early to support service. We believe that this is the best course of action due to the circumstances and the short window to decide and inform everyone. We pray that each of you is warm and safe, and hope that even as we thank God for 39 years as a church from our homes that you will take time for family devotion together.
 
While we didn’t plan for our anniversary to come this way, we remain grateful for God’s keeping hand on Bethany Community Church for all of these years. We hope to see you all in person next week!
 
God bless,  
 
Pastor Nate
